WHETHER OR NOT YOU PLAN TO ATTEND THE 2021 ANNUAL MEETING, PLEASE PROMPTLY VOTE BY TELEPHONE OR INTERNET AS INSTRUCTED ON THE ACCOMPANYING PROXY CARD OR THE NOTICE REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS, OR COMPLETE, DATE, SIGN AND RETURN THE ACCOMPANYING PROXY CARD AS INSTRUCTED THEREON.

In this proxy statement, we refer to Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. as the “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us.” This proxy statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by our Board of Directors (the “Board”) of proxies to be voted at the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company (the “2021 Annual Meeting”), which will be held at 10:00 a.m., Pacific Time, on Thursday, June 17, 2021 at 1668 S. Garfield Avenue, 3rd Floor (Ballroom), Alhambra, California 91801, or at adjournments or postponements thereof, for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Notice”). This proxy statement and the proxy card are first being mailed or made available to stockholders on or about April 29, 2021. In addition, stockholders may obtain additional copies of our Annual Report to Stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2020 (“2021 Annual Report to Stockholders”) and this proxy statement, without charge, by writing to us at our principal executive offices at 1668 S. Garfield Avenue, 2nd Floor, Alhambra, California 91801, Attention: Corporate Secretary, or from our website at https://apollomed.net/sec-filings. Our 2021 Annual Report to Stockholders, which incorporates our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 15, 2021, without exhibits, is being provided or made available to stockholders concurrently with this proxy statement. The Annual Report is not to be regarded as proxy soliciting material or as a communication by means of which any solicitation of proxies is to be made.

Our largest stockholder and a consolidated variable interest entity of the Company, Allied Physicians of California, a Professional Medical Corporation (“APC”), held approximately 10,895,193 shares of our common stock as of the Record Date, representing a controlling interest in our Company. Pursuant to a Voting and Registration Rights Agreement that APC and the Company entered into on September 11, 2019 in connection with the consummation of a series of interrelated transactions further described in “Related Person Transactions” below, APC shall only be permitted to vote up to 9.99% of the outstanding shares of our common stock at any time a vote is taken and will grant a proxy to the Company’s management to vote any excess shares in the same proportion as all other votes cast on any proposal coming before the Company’s stockholders.

As of the Record Date, 1,111,111 shares of our Series A preferred stock and 555,555 shares of our Series B preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, were held by our wholly owned subsidiary, Network Medical Management, Inc. (“NMM”). Pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, such shares held by NMM shall be neither entitled to vote, nor counted for quorum purposes, at the 2021 Annual Meeting.

The presence of the holders of a majority of the Voting Shares, in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the 2021 Annual Meeting, including voting on each proposal to be voted on at the meeting. Broker non-votes and abstentions by stockholders from voting will be counted towards determining whether or not a quorum is present at the 2021 Annual Meeting, as the Voting Shares so held are entitled to vote at the meeting but do not count as affirmative or negative votes cast.

Holders of Voting Shares will have one vote for each such share with regard to each matter to be voted upon. A broker non-vote occurs when shares held by a broker or other nominee are not voted with respect to a particular proposal because the broker or nominee does not have discretionary authority to vote on the matter and has not received voting instructions from beneficial owners. If an executed proxy is returned, indicating that the broker or nominee holding shares in street name does not have discretionary authority as to the shares with respect to a proposal, such shares will be considered present at the 2021 Annual Meeting for purposes of determining a quorum on all matters, but will not be considered to be votes cast. Similarly, abstentions by stockholders from voting and broker non-votes will be counted towards determining whether or not a quorum is present. If your broker holds your shares in its name and you do not instruct your broker how to vote, your broker will only have discretion to vote your shares on “routine” matters.

All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of elections appointed for the 2021 Annual Meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, withheld votes, abstentions and broker non-votes, if any.

If you are a record holder, you can vote by attending the 2021 Annual Meeting and voting in person, or you can vote by proxy in three ways:

•By Internet: You may vote by submitting a proxy over the Internet. Please refer to the proxy card or voting instruction form provided or made available to you by your broker for instructions of how to vote by Internet.

•By Telephone: Stockholders located in the United States that receive proxy materials by mail may vote by submitting a proxy by telephone by calling the toll-free telephone number on the proxy card or voting instruction form provided or made available to you and following the instructions.

•By Mail: If you received proxy materials by mail, you can vote by submitting a proxy by mail by marking, dating, signing and returning the accompanying proxy card.

•In Person at the 2021 Annual Meeting: If you attend the 2021 Annual Meeting, you may deliver your completed proxy card in person or you may vote by completing a ballot, which we will provide you at the meeting. You are encouraged to vote by telephone or Internet or complete, date, sign and return the proxy card provided or made available to you, regardless of whether or not you plan to attend the 2021 Annual Meeting.

Voting Shares represented by proxies submitted over the Internet or by telephone, or for which proxy cards are properly executed and returned to us, will be voted at the 2021 Annual Meeting in accordance with the stockholders’ instructions contained therein. In the absence of contrary instructions, shares represented by such proxies will be voted FOR the election of each of the director nominees named on Proposal 1, FOR the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young, LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm on Proposal 2 and FOR the approval of the amendment of our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan on Proposal 3. Management does not know of any matters to be presented at the 2021 Annual Meeting other than those set forth in this proxy statement and the accompanying notice of 2021 Annual Meeting. If other matters should properly come before the meeting, the proxy holders intend to vote all proxies received by them on such matters in accordance with their best judgment. Any stockholder has the right to revoke his, her or its proxy at any time before it is voted at the 2021 Annual Meeting by giving written notice to our Corporate Secretary, and by executing and delivering to the Corporate Secretary a duly executed proxy card bearing a later date, or by appearing at the meeting and voting in person. A beneficial owner of our common stock may revoke or change voting instructions by contacting the bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee holding the shares in street names or by obtaining a legal proxy from such institution and voting at the meeting.

Some banks, brokers and other nominee record holders may be participating in the practice of “householding” proxy statements and annual reports. This means that only one copy of our proxy statement and annual report to stockholders may have been sent to multiple stockholders in your household. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be householding materials to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement in the future, or if you and other shareholders sharing your address are receiving multiple copies of the proxy materials and you would like to receive only a single copy of such materials in the future, please notify your broker. You may also call (866) 540-7095 or write to: Householding Department, Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717, and include your name, the name of your broker or other nominee, and your account number(s). If you share an address with another shareholder and have received only one set of this year’s proxy materials and you wish to receive a separate copy, please notify us in writing at: Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc., 1668 S. Garfield Avenue, 2nd Floor, Alhambra, California 91801, Attention: Corporate Secretary, and we will deliver a separate copy to you promptly.

We are furnishing proxy materials for the 2021 Annual Meeting to all of our stockholders via the Internet by mailing a Notice Regarding the Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (“Notice”), instead of mailing or emailing copies of those materials to our stockholders. However, we may still mail copies of such proxy materials to some stockholders. The Notice directs our stockholders to a website where they can access our proxy materials, including our proxy statement and our 2021 Annual Report to Stockholders, and view instructions on how to vote via the Internet, a mobile device, or by telephone. If you received such a Notice and would prefer to receive a paper copy of our proxy materials, please follow the instructions included in the notice. If you have previously elected to receive our proxy materials via email, you will continue to receive access to those materials electronically unless you elect otherwise.

Only our stockholders as of the Record Date are entitled to attend the 2021 Annual Meeting. If you own our stock as a record holder, your name will be on a list of record holders and you will be able to gain entry with government-issued photo identification, such as a driver’s license, state-issued identification card, or passport. If you beneficially own our stock held in street name, in order to gain entry, you must present a valid legal proxy from a record holder of our stock as of the Record Date and government-issued photo identification. You should contact your brokerage account representative, bank or other nominee to learn how to obtain a legal proxy. All stockholders and proxy holders must register at the reception desk and sign the attendance sheet before entering the room for the 2021 Annual Meeting. In fairness to all attendees and in the interest of an orderly and constructive meeting, we ask that you abide by the rules of procedure for the 2021 Annual Meeting, which will be available to you when you register at the reception desk. Cameras, recording devices, and other electronic devices are prohibited at the meeting.

A list of our stockholders of record as of the Record Date entitled to vote at the 2021 Annual Meeting will be available for examination by any such stockholder for any purpose germane to the 2021 Annual Meeting during ordinary business hours at our corporate headquarters located at 1668 S. Garfield Avenue, Alhambra, California 91801, for a period of ten days prior to the 2021 Annual Meeting, and also at the 2021 Annual Meeting. Please contact the Company’s Corporate Secretary at (626) 282-0288 or by email at: investors@apollomed.net if you wish to inspect the list of stockholders prior to the meeting.

We are required by law to convene annual meetings of stockholders at which our directors are elected. The Board is soliciting proxies from our stockholders for the 2021 Annual Meeting. The entire cost of soliciting proxies will be borne by the Company. These costs will include, among other items, the expense of preparing, assembling, printing and mailing the proxy materials or notices of Internet availability to our stockholders of record and beneficial owners. Proxies will be solicited principally through mail, but, if deemed desirable, may be solicited personally or by telephone or letters by our officers and regular employees for no additional compensation. We may also solicit proxies by email from stockholders who are our employees or who previously requested to receive proxy materials electronically. Arrangements may be made with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to send proxies and proxy materials or notices of Internet availability to beneficial owners of our stock and obtain their voting instructions, and such persons may be reimbursed for their expenses.

Stockholders will be asked at the 2021 Annual Meeting to elect eleven directors who will constitute the full Board of Directors. Each elected director will hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and the director’s successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation or removal.

The following eleven persons have been nominated by the Board for election to the Board: Kenneth Sim, M.D., Thomas S. Lam, M.D., M.P.H., Mitchell W. Kitayama, David G. Schmidt, Mark Fawcett, Michael F. Eng, Li Yu, Ernest A. Bates, M.D., Linda Marsh, John Chiang and Matthew Mazdyasni. All the nominees are incumbent directors. Additional information about these nominees is provided in “Corporate Governance” and “Board of Directors and Executive Officers” below.

Following a rigorous reviewing process, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommended the eleven incumbent directors for re-election at the 2021 Annual Meeting as they continue to contribute to the mix of experience, skills and qualifications that we seek to be represented on the Board. Each nominee has been nominated by the Board, acting upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Unless authority to vote for this nominee is withheld, the shares represented by the enclosed proxy will be voted FOR the election as directors of the eleven nominees.

In the event that a nominee is unable or unwilling to serve as a director at the time of the 2021 Annual Meeting, all proxies received by the proxy holders named on the accompanying proxy card will be voted FOR the election of such other person as either proxy holder may designate in such nominee’s place. In the event that additional persons are nominated for election as directors, the proxy holders intend to vote all proxies received by them for each of the nominees listed below, unless instructions are given to the contrary. As of the date of this proxy statement, the Board is not aware of any nominee who is unable or unwilling to serve as a director. If elected at the 2021 Annual Meeting, a director will serve until the annual meeting of our stockholders to be held in 2022 and a successor has been duly elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier resignation or removal.

The Audit Committee has appointed Ernst & Young, LLP (“EY”) as our independent registered public accounting firm, to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. In deciding to appoint EY, the Audit Committee reviewed auditor independence issues and existing commercial relationships with EY and concluded that EY has no commercial relationship with the Company that would impair its independence for the year ending December 31, 2021. The Board recommends that our stockholders ratify the appointment of EY as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. While we are not required to have our stockholders ratify the appointment of EY as our independent registered public accounting firm, we are doing so because we value our stockholders’ views on the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. If the stockholders do not ratify this appointment, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether to retain EY. If the selection of EY is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may still direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time it determines that such a change would be in the best interest of the Company and our stockholders.

As reported on the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 28, 2020:

(1)Represents aggregate fees charged by EY or BDO USA, LLP in each respective year serving as the external auditor, as applicable, for audit work performed on the annual financial statements and review of quarterly financial statements, as well as work generally only the independent registered public accounting firm can reasonably be expected to provide, such as the provision of consents in connection with the filing of registration statements, current reports on Form 8-K and related amendments and statutory audits.

(2)Tax fees consist of various permissible tax compliance and tax advisory service fees by EY.

Purpose. The creativity and entrepreneurial drive of our employees and other personnel who provide services to the Company are important factors in the growth and success of our business. We believe that our broad-based equity incentive program is an effective means of motivating and rewarding the efforts of our employees and other valuable personnel. By giving our employees, consultants and directors an opportunity to share in the growth of our equity, we align their interests with those of our stockholders. Our employees, consultants and directors understand that their stake in the Company will have value only if, working together, we create value for our stockholders. Awards under our equity incentive plans generally vest over a period of time (for example, stock options generally vest over a three-year period), giving the recipient an additional incentive to provide services over a number of years and build on past performance. We believe that our option program has helped us to build a team of high achievers who have demonstrated long-term dedication and productivity and who, in turn, help us to attract like-minded individuals to the Company.

Number of Shares. Under the Amended 2015 Plan, a total 3,500,000 shares of our common stock (including 2,000,000 new shares), plus rollover shares from previous equity incentive plans of the Company (the “Rollover Shares”), are reserved for issuance under awards. Any shares that are represented by awards under the Amended 2015 Plan that are (i) forfeited, expire, or are canceled or settled in cash without delivery of shares, (ii) forfeited back to us or reacquired by us after delivery for any reason, or (iii) tendered to us or withheld to pay the exercise price or related tax withholding obligations in connection with any award under the Amended 2015 Plan, will again be available for awards under the Amended 2015 Plan. Only shares actually issued under the Amended 2015 Plan will

Administration. The Amended 2015 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”). The Compensation Committee will have full power to administer the Amended 2015 Plan and the decisions of the Compensation Committee will be final and binding upon all the participants.

Eligibility. The selection of the participants in the Amended 2015 Plan will generally be determined by the Compensation Committee. Employees and those about to become employees, including those who are officers or directors of the Company or its subsidiaries and affiliates, are eligible to be selected to receive awards under the Amended 2015 Plan. In addition, non-employee service providers, including non-employee directors, and employees of unaffiliated entities that provide bona fide services to the Company as an independent contractor are eligible to be selected to receive awards under the Amended 2015 Plan. Non-employee directors of the Board are eligible for and shall receive grants of options in such amounts and on such terms as determined by the Board as a whole. All other grants must be approved by the Compensation Committee.

Types of Awards. The Amended 2015 Plan allows for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance awards, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and dividend equivalent units in any combination, separately or in tandem. Subject to the terms of the Amended 2015 Plan, the Compensation Committee will determine the terms and conditions of awards, including the times when awards vest or become payable and the effect of certain events such as termination of employment.

Stock Options. The Compensation Committee may grant either incentive stock options qualified under IRS Code Section 422 or options not qualified under any section of the IRS Code (“non-qualified options”). All stock options granted under the Amended 2015 Plan must have an exercise price that is at least equal to the fair market value of our underlying common stock on the grant date. As of April 27, 2021, the fair market value of a share of our common stock, based on the closing price per share on that date as quoted on NASDAQ, was $28.39. No stock option granted under the Amended 2015 Plan may have a term longer than ten years, except that under the Amended 2015 Plan the Compensation Committee may extend the term for six months beyond the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date of grant in the event that an option recipient dies prior to the option’s termination date. The exercise price of stock options may be paid in cash, or, if the Compensation Committee permits, by tendering shares of common stock, or by any other means the Compensation Committee approves. Stock options may contain a replenishment provision under which we issue a new option to an option holder (called a “replenishment option”), in order to maintain his or her equity stake in the Company, if the option holder surrenders previously-owned shares to us in payment of the exercise price of an outstanding stock option. The automatic replenishment option grant generally covers only the number of shares surrendered and expires at the same time as the option that was exercised would have expired.

Stock Appreciation Rights. The Compensation Committee may grant stock appreciation rights which provide the recipient the right to receive a payment (in cash, shares or a combination of both) equal to the difference between the fair market value of a specific number of shares on the grant date and the fair market value of such shares on the date of exercise. Stock appreciation rights must expire no later than ten years after their grant date, except that under the Amended 2015 Plan the term may be extended for six months beyond the date of death in the event that a recipient dies prior to the SAR’s termination date.

Performance-Based Awards. The Amended 2015 Plan provides for performance-based awards, the grant or vesting of which is dependent upon the attainment of objective performance targets relative to certain performance measures. Performance targets may include minimum, maximum and target levels of performance, with the size of the award or vesting based on the level attained. Performance measures are criteria established by the Compensation Committee relating to any of the following, as it may apply to an individual, one or more business units, divisions or subsidiaries, or on a company-wide basis, and either in absolute terms or relative to the performance of one or more comparable companies or an index covering multiple companies: income from operations; revenue; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA); income before income taxes and minority interests; operating income; pre- or after-tax income; average accounts receivable; cash flow; cash flow per share; net earnings; earnings per share; return on equity; return on invested capital; return on assets; growth in assets; economic value added; share price performance; total stockholder return; improvement in or attainment of expense levels; market penetration; or business expansion and/or acquisitions or divestitures. The Compensation Committee can select other goals not listed here for awards that are not intended to meet the requirements of “qualified performance-based compensation.” The Compensation Committee may specify that the performance-based awards will become payable in whole or in part in the event of the recipient’s termination of employment as a result of death, disability or retirement.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Awards. The Compensation Committee may grant shares of restricted common stock with or without payment of consideration by the recipient or may grant restricted stock units. The Compensation Committee will determine whether restricted stock units will be paid in cash, our common stock or a combination thereof. All or part of any restricted stock or restricted stock unit award may be subject to conditions and restrictions, which the Compensation Committee will specify. There will be a restriction period of at least three years’ duration on stock and unit awards, unless the vesting of such awards is contingent on the attainment of performance goals, in which case the restriction period must be at least one year. The Compensation Committee may specify that the restriction period will lapse in the event of the recipient’s termination of employment as a result of death, disability or retirement. In addition, the Compensation Committee may provide for a shorter restriction period if it determines in its sole discretion that an award of restricted stock or restricted stock units is made in lieu of cash compensation (including without limitation cash bonus compensation).

Dividend Equivalent Unit Awards. The Compensation Committee may grant awards of dividend equivalent units, either alone or in tandem with other awards, but only if the Board of Directors has declared a dividend on our common stock. A dividend equivalent unit gives the recipient the right to receive a current or deferred payment equal to the dividends paid on one or more shares of our common stock as the Compensation Committee specifies.

Payment of Directors’ Fees in Securities. Subject to any restrictions the Board imposes, a non-employee director may elect to receive stock options in lieu of all or any portion of the director’s annual retainer payment from the Company. These options will be issued under and subject to the terms of the Amended 2015 Plan. The number of options to be issued in connection with such an election by a director will be four times the amount of the cash compensation divided by the closing price of our common stock on the date the cash compensation would otherwise have been paid to the director.

Recoupment. Any awards granted pursuant to the Amended 2015 Plan, and any stock issued or cash paid pursuant to an award, is subject to (A) any recoupment, clawback, equity holding, stock ownership or similar policies adopted by the Company from time to time, and (B) any recoupment, clawback, equity holding, stock ownership or similar requirements made applicable by law, regulation or listing standards to the Company from time to time.

Use of Shares to Satisfy Tax Withholding. A participant may satisfy all or a portion of the federal, state and local withholding tax obligations arising in connection with an award by electing to (i) have the Company withhold shares otherwise issuable under the award, (ii) tender back shares received in connection with such award or (iii) deliver other previously owned shares, in each case having a fair market value equal to the amount to be withheld.

Adjustment of Awards for Certain Corporate Events. In the event of a stock dividend, stock split or reverse stock split, merger, consolidation, or similar corporate transaction, the Compensation Committee may adjust the number and type of securities subject to awards, and the grant, purchase or exercise price of awards to prevent the dilution or enlargement in benefits under outstanding awards. The Compensation Committee may also (or in lieu of the foregoing) make provision for a cash payment to the holder of an outstanding award in exchange for the cancellation of all or a portion of the award (without the consent of the holder of an award), but in the event of a change of control, the amount of such payment must be at least as favorable to the holder as the amount the holder could have received in respect of such award after the change of control. In addition, in the event of any reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination or other similar corporate transaction, whether or not constituting a change of control (other than any such transaction in which the Company is the continuing corporation and in which the Company’s common stock is not being converted into or exchanged for different securities, cash or other property, or any combination thereof), the Compensation Committee may substitute, on an equitable basis as the Compensation Committee determines, for each share then subject to an award, the number and kind of shares of stock, other securities, cash or other property to which holders of our common stock are or will be entitled in respect of each share pursuant to the transaction.

Change of Control. The Compensation Committee may determine, in its discretion, whether an award issued under the Amended 2015 Plan will become vested or payable, either in whole or in part, upon a change of control of the Company (as defined in the Amended 2015 Plan). In addition, each holder of an option or stock appreciation right, and each holder of shares received under a restricted stock award, restricted stock unit award, performance award or dividend equivalent award, if any, that vested or became payable as a result of the change of control, may, under certain conditions, have the right for a period of 30 days following the change of control to surrender the award or shares for a cash payment equal to:

•in the case of an option or stock appreciation right, the difference between the higher of the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the date of surrender or the date of the change of control, and the grant or exercise price of the award; and

•in the case of shares, the higher of the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the date of surrender or the date of the change of control.

Transferability of Awards. Awards granted under the Amended 2015 Plan are not transferable, other than by will or pursuant to state intestate laws, unless the Compensation Committee otherwise approves a transfer.

Foreign Participation. The Compensation Committee may provide for such special terms as it may consider necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy or custom regarding awards granted to participants employed in foreign countries. In addition, the Compensation Committee may approve such supplements to, or amendments, restatements or alternative versions of, the Amended 2015 Plan as it determines is necessary or appropriate for such purposes. Any such amendment, restatement or alternative versions that the Compensation Committee approves for purposes of using the 2015 Plan in a foreign country will not affect the terms of the Amended 2015 Plan for use in any other country.

Amendments. The Board or Compensation Committee may alter, amend, suspend or discontinue the Amended 2015 Plan at any time, but no such action may be taken without stockholder approval if such approval is required by law or listing requirements, or if such action materially increases the number of shares that may be issued under the Amended 2015 Plan or the annual award limits, or eliminates the prohibition on stock option repricing. The Compensation Committee may alter or amend awards under the Amended 2015 Plan, but no such action may be taken without the consent of the participant if it would materially adversely affect an outstanding award, and no such action may be taken without prior stockholder approval if it would result in repricing a stock option to a lower exercise price other than to reflect a capital adjustment of our stock, such as a stock split. The Company has never repriced options in the past.

Term of 2015 Plan. The Amended 2015 Plan will remain in effect until December 15, 2025, unless it is terminated earlier by the Board or the Compensation Committee.

The Board has determined that a majority of its current members and a majority of its director nominees for election at the 2021 Annual Meeting meet the independence requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”). Based upon information requested from and provided by each director or nominee concerning his background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, the Board has affirmatively determined that Mitchell W. Kitayama, David G. Schmidt, Michael F. Eng, Mark Fawcett, Li Yu, Ernest A. Bates, M.D., and John Chiang would qualify as “independent” as defined in NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2). In making such determinations, the Board considered all relevant facts and circumstances, including commercial, industrial, banking, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable and familial relationships, not merely from the standpoint of a director or nominee, but also from that of persons or organizations affiliated with the director or nominee.

Subject to certain exceptions, NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of the Board, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, and that a director cannot be an “independent” director if (a) the director is, or in the past three years has been, an employee of ours; (b) a member of the director’s immediate family is, or in the past three years has been, an executive officer of ours; (c) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family has received more than $120,000 per year in direct compensation from us within the preceding three years, other than for service as a director or benefits under a tax-qualified retirement plan or non-discretionary compensation (or, for a family member, as a non-executive employee); (d) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family is a current partner of our independent public accounting firm, or has worked for such firm in any capacity on our audit at any time during the past three years; (e) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family is, or in the past three years has been, employed as an executive officer of a company where one of our executive officers serves on the compensation committee; or (f) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family is an executive officer, partner or controlling stockholder of a company that makes payments to, or receives payments from, us in an amount which, in any twelve-month period during our past three fiscal years, exceeds the greater of 5% of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenues for that year or $200,000 (except for payments arising solely from investments in our securities or payments under non-discretionary charitable contribution matching programs). With respect to any relationship not covered above, the determination of whether the relationship is material, and therefore whether a director would be independent, will be made by those directors who satisfy the independence criteria set forth above.

The Board also makes such independence determinations with respect to its committees after taking into account the additional independence standards for members of each such committee, as applicable, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and NASDAQ listing rules as currently in effect. In order to be considered an independent member of an audit committee under Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act, a committee member may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the Board, or any other committee of the Board, accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the applicable company or any of its subsidiaries or otherwise be an affiliated person of the applicable company or any of its subsidiaries. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director who is currently serving on a committee of the Board concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, the Board has affirmatively

The Board held thirteen meetings and acted by written consent once during 2020. Each of our incumbent directors attended 75% or more of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board and the committees on which such director served in 2020. We attempt to schedule each annual meeting of our stockholders at a time and date to accommodate attendance by directors, taking into account the directors’ schedules. Directors are encouraged to attend our annual meetings of stockholders, but the Board has not adopted a formal policy with respect to such attendance. Five directors attended the Company’s 2020 annual meeting of stockholders.

Our independent directors meet periodically in executive session without management present to discuss our operations, policies and practices, as well as other matters relating to us or the functioning of the Board.

Our Board has not taken a position on the desirability, as a general matter, of having two individuals serve as Co-Chief Executive Officer or of combining the roles of Co-Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman. Rather, our Board believes that decisions regarding the individuals most appropriate to fill these and other critical senior leadership positions are highly dependent on the specific circumstances of the Company and its leadership at the time of such decisions, including the availability of qualified candidates for the position and the specific talents and experience of the available candidates. The Board believes that the Company benefits from Drs. Sim and Lam’s long-standing experience working together in the healthcare industry, each having gained more than 26 years of senior-level management experience leading the Company and, prior to the merger, NMM and its affiliated physician groups. Accordingly, the Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders for both individuals to serve as Co-Chief Executive Officers.

The Board believes that independent directors and management have different perspectives and roles in the development of the strategic vision and risk management of the Company. The Company’s independent directors provide experience, oversight, and expertise from outside the Company and the Company’s industry, while the Co-Chief Executive Officers provide Company-specific experience and expertise. The Board believes that the combined role of Co-Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman promotes the development and execution of the strategic vision and risk management of the Company, and facilitates information flow between management and the Board, functions that are essential to effective corporate governance. The Board further believes that Dr. Sim is currently the director best situated to serve as Executive Chairman, as he is the director most familiar with the Company’s business and industry and most capable of effectively identifying strategic priorities and leading the discussion and execution of strategy.

The Board has designated independent director, Mr. Kitayama, as our Lead Independent Director. Mr. Kitayama presides over executive sessions of the independent directors. As Lead Independent Director, Mr. Kitayama has duties and responsibilities, which include consulting with the Executive Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officers regarding the schedule and agenda for Board meetings, acting as a liaison between the non-management directors as a group and management, and discharging such other duties and responsibilities as the Board may determine from time to time.

The following procedures have been established by the Board to facilitate communications between our stockholders and the Board:

•Stockholders and any interested parties may send correspondence to the Board or to any individual director, by mail to: Corporate Secretary, Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc., 1668 S. Garfield Avenue, 2nd Floor, Alhambra, California 91801, or by email to: investors@apollomed.net.

•Communications will be distributed to the Board, or to any individual director or group of directors as appropriate, depending on the facts and circumstances outlined in the communications.

•Items that are unrelated to the duties and responsibilities of the Board may be excluded, such as:

•junk mail and mass mailings

•resumes and other forms of job inquiries

•surveys

•solicitations or advertisements.

The Audit Committee operates under a written charter, a copy of which is available on our website at https://apollomed.net/corporate-governance. The Audit Committee currently consists of Messrs. Schmidt (chairman), Eng and Chiang. The Board has determined that each of the members of the Audit Committee is an audit committee financial expert, as that term is defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K of the Exchange Act. The Board has determined that all members of the Audit Committee qualify as “independent” directors within the meaning of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act and as defined under NASDAQ listing rules, as currently in effect and applicable to members of audit committees. As required by the Audit Committee charter, no Audit Committee member currently serves on audit committees of more than two other public companies. The Audit Committee met seven times during 2020.

The Compensation Committee operates under a written charter, a copy of which is available on our website at https://apollomed.net/corporate-governance. The Compensation Committee currently consists of Messrs. Kitayama (chairman), Fawcett and Chiang. The Board has determined that all members of the Compensation Committee qualify as “independent” directors as defined under NASDAQ listing rules, as a “non-employee director” as defined in Rule 16b-3(b)(3) under the Exchange Act and as an “outside director” as defined in Treasury Regulation 26 CFR § 1.162-27, implementing Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and currently in effect. The Compensation Committee acted by written consent three times during 2020.

The Compensation Committee establishes the compensation and benefits of our executive officers and makes recommendations to the Board regarding director compensation, including for membership on any committee of the Board. The Compensation Committee also administers our compensation plans, including our equity incentive plans.

In establishing executive and director compensation, the Compensation Committee seeks to provide compensation that is competitive in light of current market conditions and industry practices. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee will generally review market data from peer companies and information from nationally recognized published surveys, adjusted for size. The Compensation Committee then considers other factors, such as each executive officer’s individual expertise, experience, and performance, any retention concerns and relevant compensation trends in the marketplace, in making its final compensation determinations. The Compensation Committee has the authority to directly retain the services of independent consultants and other experts to assist in fulfilling its responsibilities. While members of our human resources and finance departments support the Compensation Committee in its work, our executive officers, in general, are not involved in determining the amount or form of executive and director compensation, but may from time to time make recommendations and provide feedback to the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee reviews the performance of each executive officer in light of the above factors and determines whether the executive officer should receive any increase in base salary, annual bonus award or discretionary equity award based on such evaluation.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee operates under a written charter, a copy of which is available on our website at https://apollomed.net/corporate-governance. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee currently consists of Messrs. Kitayama (chairman), Schmidt and Dr. Bates. All members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meet the independence requirements of NASDAQ. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee acted by written consent once during 2020. The principal ongoing functions of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee include developing criteria for selecting new directors, establishing and monitoring procedures for the receipt and consideration of director candidates recommended by management, stockholders and others, considering and examining director candidates, recommending director nominations to the Board, developing corporate governance principles for the Company, overseeing the Company’s compliance with those principles, and establishing monitoring procedures for the receipt of stockholder communications directed to the Board, and periodically evaluating the Board to determine whether the Board and its committees are functioning effectively.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee identifies appropriate candidates to serve as directors of the Company, interviews candidates and makes recommendations to the Board regarding director nominations. In considering candidates to serve as directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee evaluates them against one or more of the following qualifications: personal integrity, sound judgment, business and professional skills and experience, industry knowledge, financial acumen and the extent to which the candidate would fill a present need on the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also considers additional factors, including the current composition of the Board, the current strategy and future outlook of the Company, the range of experience and skills that would best complement those already represented on the Board and the need for specialized expertise. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has not adopted a formal diversity policy regarding its selection of candidates or consideration of nominations, but will consider issues of diversity in identifying and recommending director nominees to the Board, and strive where appropriate to achieve a balance of backgrounds and perspectives on the Board and its committees.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers potential candidates recommended by stockholders, directors, officers, advisors, third-party search firms or other appropriate sources. In selecting candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee takes into account all factors it deems relevant, such as a candidate’s knowledge, experience, background, independence, possible conflicts of interest and concerns for the long-term interests of our stockholders. Persons recommended by stockholders are generally considered on the same basis as candidates from other sources. If a stockholder wishes to propose a director candidate for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the stockholder must follow the procedures and comply with the requirements described in “Stockholder Proposals” at the end of this proxy statement.

In recommending to the Board the eleven director nominees for election at the 2021 Annual Meeting, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considered the factors described above as well as each nominee’s previous service on the Board, which the committee believes provides a desirable level of continuity and institutional knowledge with respect to the Board’s deliberations. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also considered specific qualifications, attributes and skills that each nominee possesses and contributes to the Board as identified under the respective nominee’s biography in “Background of Directors” below.

The Board has adopted a written policy setting forth our procedures for reviewing, and approving or ratifying, transactions with an executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director of the Company, a greater than five percent beneficial owner of the Company’s common stock, or an immediate family member of any of the foregoing (collectively, “Related Persons”). The policy covers transactions, arrangements or relationships in which the aggregate amount involved exceeds, or is expected to exceed, $120,000 in any fiscal year of the Company, the Company or any of its controlled subsidiaries is a participant, and a Related Person had, has or is expected to have a direct or indirect material interest (a “Covered Transaction”). The Audit Committee is responsible for ratifying or approving a Covered Transaction.

In reviewing a Covered Transaction, the Audit Committee shall consider all relevant facts and circumstances, including:

•the Related Person’s interest and involvement in the transaction;

•the nature of the Company’s participation in the transaction;

•the Related Person’s relationship to the Company;

•whether the transaction was undertaken in the ordinary course of business of the Company;

•the availability of unrelated third parties as alternative counterparties to the proposed transaction;

•whether the transaction is proposed to be, or was, entered into on an arms-length basis or on terms no less favorable to the Company than terms that could have been reached with an unrelated third party under the same or similar circumstances;

•whether the transaction would impair the independence of a director or a nominee for election as a director of the Company under the NASDAQ listing rules;

•the purpose of, and the potential benefits and materiality to the Company of, the transaction;

•the risks and limitations that may arise as a result of or in connection with the proposed transaction, including any potential reputational risk; and

•any other information that would be material to our investors in light of the context of the particular transaction and the Related Person.

•any compensation paid to an executive officer of the Company for his or her services to the Company if the compensation is, or would be required to be reported in, the Company’s proxy statements and the Compensation Committee has approved, or recommended that the Board approve, such compensation;

•any compensation paid to a director of the Company for services to the Company as a director if the compensation is required to be reported in the Company’s proxy statements;

•any transaction where the Related Person’s interest arises solely from the ownership of the Company’s common stock and all holders of the Company’s common stock received the same benefit on a pro rata basis;

•any transaction involving a Related Person where the rates or charges involved are determined by competitive bids;

•any transaction between the Company or its controlled subsidiary and an entity with an executive officer of the Company serving as a nominee shareholder (including where the officer as a licensed physician, rather than the Company, is required by corporate practice of medicine or similar law to serve as the shareholder of such entity on behalf of the Company or its subsidiary in order to achieve certain corporate, regulatory and/or accounting treatment) and where such officer derives no direct financial benefit from such status; or

•any transaction between the Company or its controlled subsidiary and an entity that has been reported in the Company’s statement of income for its last fiscal year on a consolidated basis (including any variable interest entity of the Company).

The Audit Committee may establish such other categories of transactions that shall be deemed pre-approved.

NMM, the Company’s principal wholly owned subsidiary, received a payment of $50.3 million from the Company’s consolidated variable interest entity, APC, in 2020 pursuant to a long-term management and administrative services agreement. On September 11, 2019, the Company, AP-AMH Medical Corporation (“AP-AMH’), a consolidated variable interest entity, and APC, concurrently consummated a series of interrelated transactions (collectively, the “APC Transactions”). As disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and the Company’s other prior reports filed with the SEC, the APC Transactions included the following:

•the Company made a $545.0 million ten-year secured loan to AP-AMH bearing a 10% per annum interest rate (the “AP-AMH Loan”);

•AP-AMH used all of the proceeds of that loan to purchase 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock of APC, pursuant to which AP-AMH is entitled to receive preferential, cumulative dividends equal to the sum of APC’s net income from certain healthcare services and any dividends received by APC from certain of APC’s affiliated entities, less certain retained amounts;

•APC purchased 15,015,015 shares of the Company’s common stock for total consideration of $300.0 million in a private placement, pursuant to which APC was granted certain registration rights and agreed that APC votes in excess of 9.99% of the Company’s then outstanding shares would be voted by proxy given to the Company’s management, and that those proxy holders will cast the excess votes in the same proportion as all other votes cast on any specific proposal coming before the Company’s stockholders;

•the Company licensed to AP-AMH the right to use certain tradenames for certain specified purposes for a fee equal to a percentage of the aggregate gross revenues of AP-AMH, pursuant to which a license fee is payable out of any Series A Preferred Stock dividends received by AP-AMH from APC; and

•through its subsidiary, NMM, the Company agreed to provide certain administrative services to AP-AMH for a fee equal to a percentage of the aggregate gross revenues of AP-AMH, which is payable out of any APC Series A Preferred Stock dividends received by AP-AMH from APC.

In December 2020, APC purchased a 100% interest in Medical Property Partners, LLC (“MPP”), AMG Properties, LLC (“AMG Properties”), and ZLL Partners, LLC (“ZLL”), each of which own land and buildings leased to tenants in Alhambra and Pasadena, California, for a total of $12.2 million. Drs. Sim and Lam were members of MPP, AMG Properties and ZLL prior to APC’s purchase. Dr. Young was a member of MPP prior to APC’s purchase.

Preferred Bank has previously provided loans and lines of credit to NMM and APC and issued letters of credit to APC and other consolidated variable interest entities of the Company as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Company director, Li Yu, is the Board Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Preferred Bank. Such credit facilities were made in the ordinary course of business on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable loans with persons not related to the lenders and did not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features.

APC-LSMA Designated Shareholder Medical Corporation is solely owned by Dr. Lam, controlled by APC and consolidated as a variable interest entity of the Company. APC-LSMA owns 25% of the IPA business of LaSalle Medical Associates. During the year ended December 31, 2020, NMM earned approximately $16.9 million in management fees from LMA pursuant to a management services agreement.

The following table reflects the compensation awarded to, earned by or paid to our directors for the year ended December 31, 2020. Drs. Sim and Lam are not included in the following table because they received no separate compensation for their services as directors of the Company, and all compensation earned by them during the year ended December 31, 2020, as executive officers of the Company is reflected in the Summary Compensation Table below:

Assumptions used in the calculation of these amounts are included in Note 16 to our audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. These amounts do not reflect the actual economic value that may be realized by the non-employee director upon vesting or the exercise of the stock options, or the sale of the common stock underlying such options.

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis set forth in this proxy statement with management. Based on this review and discussion, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement.

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis explains the material elements of the compensation awarded to, earned by, or paid to the executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table below during 2020, who we refer to as our “named executive officers.”

The Compensation Committee oversees the design and administration of the compensation program for our executive officers. The Compensation Committee’s primary objectives in structuring and administering our executive officer compensation program are to:

•Attract, motivate and retain talented and dedicated executive officers; and

•Reinforce business strategies and objectives for enhanced stockholder value.

To achieve these goals, the Compensation Committee evaluates individual executive performance with a goal of setting compensation at levels the Committee believes are comparable with those of executive officers at other public companies having a similar size and line of business, while taking into account our relative performance and our own strategic goals.

We view these components of compensation as related, but distinct. Although the Compensation Committee reviews total compensation, we do not believe that significant compensation derived from one component of compensation should negate or offset compensation from other components. We determine the appropriate level for each compensation component based in part on compensation paid to executive officers at comparable companies consistent with our recruiting and retention goals, our view of internal equity and consistency, the results of its most recent stockholder advisory vote, and other considerations we deem relevant, such as rewarding extraordinary performance.

The Compensation Committee typically performs an annual strategic review of our executive officers’ compensation to determine whether such compensation provides adequate incentives and motivation to our executive officers and whether it adequately compensates our executive officers relative to comparable officers in other similarly situated companies.

The Compensation Committee believes that it is important when making its compensation-related decisions to be informed as to the current practices of similarly situated companies. As a result, the Compensation Committee, from time to time, reviews broad-based third-party surveys and other information collected from public and private sources regarding the compensation for executive officers of comparably sized companies. The Compensation Committee considers the information in these surveys in connection with establishing the base salaries, performance-compensation awards, equity awards and other benefits and perquisites for our named executive officers. The Compensation Committee has not, to date, retained an independent compensation consultant.

The Compensation Committee does not believe that the compensation of our named executive officers should be established solely by reference to the compensation programs of other companies or that the compensation of our named executive officers should be set as a specified percentage of the average compensation that is paid to executive officers of other companies. However, the Compensation Committee believes that collecting and reviewing this compensation survey information is a useful resource in providing information about current compensation practices and in confirming that the Company’s executive compensation program remains competitive.

We provide our named executive officers with base salaries that we believe enable us to hire and retain individuals in a competitive environment and to reward individual performance and contribution to our overall business goals, while taking into account the unique circumstances of the Company. We review base salaries for our named executive officers annually, and increases, if any, are based on our performance and individual performance.

As required by applicable SEC rules, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the annual total compensation paid to the median employee and the annual total compensation of each of our Co-Chief Executive Officers, Dr. Sim and Dr. Lam.

For 2020, our last completed fiscal year, the median of the annual total worldwide compensation of our employees (other than our Co-Chief Executive Officers) was $43,544. As reported in the Summary Compensation Table, the annual total compensation of Dr. Sim and Dr. Lam was $2,521,773 and $2,515,142, respectively.

Based on this information, for 2020, the ratio of the annual total compensation of Dr. Sim and Dr. Lam to the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees (other than our Co-Chief Executive Officers) was 58 to 1 and 58 to 1, respectively. We took the following steps to identify the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees, as well as to determine the annual total compensation of our median employee and our Co-Chief Executive Officers:

•We determined that, as of December 31, 2020, our employee population consisted of 727 individuals, excluding our Co-Chief Executive Officers. This population consisted of full-time and part-time employees employed with us as of the determination date.

•For the annual total compensation of our median employee, we identified and calculated the elements of that employee’s compensation for 2020 in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K, resulting in annual total compensation of $43,544.

•For the annual total compensation of our Co-Chief Executive Officers, we used the amounts reported for 2020 in the “Total” column of the Summary Compensation Table included in this proxy statement.

During each fiscal year, the Compensation Committee evaluates our bonus compensation practices in light of the objectives of the compensation program. As a result of this evaluation, the Compensation Committee determined that it was appropriate for our executive officers to be eligible to receive cash and/or stock-based bonus compensation based upon their individual performance during 2020.

We provide the opportunity for our named executive officers and other executives to receive certain perquisites and general health and welfare benefits and participate in our defined contribution 401(k) plan. We provide these benefits to create additional incentives for our executive officers and to remain competitive in the general marketplace for executive talent.

Our Compensation Committee reviewed the compensation policies and practices of the Company that could have a material impact on the Company. The Compensation Committee’s review considered whether any of these policies and practices may encourage inappropriate risk-taking, whether any policy or practice may give rise to risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us, and whether it would recommend any changes to the Company’s compensation policies and practices. The Compensation Committee also reviewed risk-mitigating controls with the Board, such as the degree of committee and senior management oversight of each compensation program and the level and design of internal controls over such programs. Based on these reviews, the Company determined that risks arising from its compensation policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

In 2020, the members of our Compensation Committee were Messrs. Kitayama (chairman), Fawcett and Chiang, who are all non-employee directors. None of these committee members (1) was an officer or employee of the Company during or prior to the time they served on the Compensation Committee or (2) had any relationship requiring disclosure by the Company pursuant to any paragraph of Item 404 of SEC Regulation S-K. None of the Company’s executive officers served on the board of directors or compensation committee of a company that had an executive officer who served as a member of our Board or Compensation Committee.

Any such amendment, restatement or alternative versions that the Committee approves for purposes of using this Plan in a foreign country will not affect the terms of this Plan for any other country. In addition, all such supplements, amendments, restatements or alternative versions must comply with the provisions of Section 14(b)(ii).

(g)Recoupment. Any Awards granted pursuant to the Plan, and any Stock issued or cash paid pursuant to an Award, shall be subject to (A) any recoupment, clawback, equity holding, stock ownership or similar policies adopted by the Company from time to time and (B) any recoupment, clawback, equity holding, stock ownership or similar requirements made applicable by law, regulation or listing standards to the Company from time to time.

15.Taxes.

(a)Withholding Right. The Company is entitled to withhold the amount of any tax attributable to any amount payable or Shares deliverable under this Plan after giving the person entitled to receive such amount or Shares notice as far in advance as practicable, and the Company may defer making payment or delivery if any such tax may be pending unless and until indemnified to its satisfaction.

(b)Use of Shares to Satisfy Tax Withholding. A Participant shall have the right to satisfy all or a portion of the federal, state and local withholding tax obligations arising in connection with an Award by electing to (i) have the Company withhold Shares otherwise issuable under the Award, (ii) tender back Shares received in connection with such Award or (iii) deliver other previously owned Shares, in each case having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount to be withheld. However, the amount to be withheld may not exceed the total minimum federal, state and local tax withholding obligations associated with the transaction to the extent required to avoid an expense on the Company’s financial statements. The election must be made on or before the date as of which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined and otherwise as the Committee requires.

(c)No Guarantee of Tax Treatment. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Company does not guarantee to any Participant or any other person with an interest in an Award that (i) any Award intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A shall be so exempt, (ii) any Award intended to comply with Code Section 409A or Code Section 422 shall so comply, or (iii) any Award shall otherwise receive a specific tax treatment under any other applicable tax law, nor in any such case will the Company or any Affiliate be obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any individual with respect to the tax consequences of any Award.

(d)Participant Responsibility. If a Participant shall dispose of Stock acquired through exercise of an Incentive Stock Option within either (i) two years after the date the Option is granted or (ii) one year after the date the Option is exercised (i.e., in a disqualifying disposition), such Participant shall notify the Company within seven days of the date of such disqualifying disposition.

16.Adjustment Provisions; Change of Control.

(a)Adjustment of Shares. If the Committee determines that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Shares or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event affects the Shares such that the Committee determines an adjustment to be appropriate to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan, then, subject to Participants’ rights under Section 16(c), the Committee shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust any or all of (i) the number and type of Shares subject to this Plan (including the number and type of Shares described in Sections 6(a) and 6(d)), and which may after the event be made the subject of Awards under this Plan, (ii) the number and type of Shares subject to outstanding Awards, and (iii) the grant, purchase, or exercise price with respect to any Award. In any such case, the Committee may also (or in lieu of the foregoing) make provision for a cash payment to the holder of an outstanding Award in exchange for the cancellation of all or a portion of the Award (without the consent of the holder of an Award) in an amount determined by the Committee effective at such time as the Committee specifies (which may be the time such transaction or event is effective), but if such transaction or event constitutes a Change of Control, then (A) such payment shall be at least as favorable to the holder as the amount the holder could have received in respect of such Award under Section 16(c) and (b) from and after the Change of Control, the Committee may make such a provision only if the Committee determines that doing so is necessary to substitute, for each Share then subject to an Award, the number and kind of shares of stock, other securities, cash or other property to which holders of Stock are or will be entitled in respect of each Share pursuant to the transaction or event in accordance with the last sentence of this subsection (a). However, in each case, with respect to Awards of Incentive Stock Options, no such adjustment may be authorized to the extent that such authority would cause this Plan to violate Code Section 422(b). Further, the number of Shares subject to any Award payable or denominated in Shares must always be a whole number. Without limitation, subject to Participants’ rights under Section 16(c), in the event of any reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination or other similar corporate transaction or event, whether or not constituting a Change of Control (other than any such transaction in which the Company is the continuing corporation and in which the outstanding Stock is not being converted into or exchanged for different securities, cash or other property, or any combination thereof), the Committee may substitute, on an equitable basis as the Committee determines, for each Share then subject to an Award, the number and kind of shares of stock, other securities, cash or other property to which holders of Stock are or will be entitled in respect of each Share pursuant to the transaction.

(b)Issuance or Assumption. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, and without affecting the number of Shares otherwise reserved or available under this Plan, in connection with any merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, or reorganization, the Committee may authorize the issuance of substitute awards or assumption of awards under this Plan by another party to any such merger, consolidation, acquisition or reorganization upon such terms and conditions as it may deem appropriate.

(c)Change of Control.

(i)The Committee may specify, either in an Award Agreement or at the time of a Change of Control, whether an outstanding Award shall become vested and/or payable, in whole or in part, as a result of a Change of Control.

(ii)If, in connection with the Change of Control, the Options and SARs issued under the Plan are not assumed, or if substitute Options and SARs are not issued by the successor or Affiliate thereof in the Change of Control transaction, or if the assumed or substituted awards fail to contain similar terms and conditions as the Award prior to the Change of Control or fail to preserve, to the extent applicable, the benefit to be provided to the Participant as of the date of the Change of Control, including but not limited to the right of the Participant to receive shares upon exercise of the Option or SAR that are registered for sale to the public pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, then (1) each holder of an Option or SAR that is outstanding as of the date of the Change of Control who is an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary shall have the right, and (2) the Committee, in its sole discretion, may grant to a

(iii)If, in connection with the Change of Control, the Shares issued to a Participant as a result of the accelerated vesting or payment of a Restricted Stock Award, Performance Share Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award, Performance Unit Award or Dividend Equivalent Award under this subsection (c) are not registered for sale to the public pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, then each holder of such Shares shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to the Company (or its successor in the Change of Control transaction) within 30 days after the Change of Control, to receive, in exchange for the surrender of such Shares an amount of cash equal to the greater of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Change of Control date or the Fair Market Value of such Share on the date of surrender.

(d)Parachute Payment Limitation.

(i)Scope of Limitation. This Section 16(d) shall apply to an Award only if:

(A)the independent auditors most recently selected by the Board (the “Auditors”) determine that the after-tax value of such Award to the Participant, taking into account the effect of all federal, state and local income taxes, employment taxes and excise taxes applicable to the Participant (including the excise tax under Code Section 4999), will be greater after the application of this Section 16(d) than it was before the application of this Section 16(d); or

(B)the Committee, at the time of making an Award under the Plan or at any time thereafter, specifies in writing that such Award shall be subject to this Section 16(d) (regardless of the after-tax value of such Award to the Participant).

(ii)Basic Rule. Except as may be set forth in a written agreement by and between the Company and the holder of an Award, in the event that the Auditors determine that any payment or transfer by the Company under the Plan to or for the benefit of a Participant (a “Payment”) would be nondeductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes because of the provisions concerning “excess parachute payments” in Code Section 280G, then the aggregate present value of all Payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) to the Reduced Amount. For purposes of this Section 16(d), the “Reduced Amount” shall be the amount, expressed as a present value, which maximizes the aggregate present value of the Payments without causing any Payment to be nondeductible by the Company because of Code Section 280G.

(iii)Reduction of Payments. If the Auditors determine that any Payment would be nondeductible by the Company because of Code Section 280G, then the Company shall promptly give the Participant notice to that effect and a copy of the detailed calculation thereof and of the Reduced Amount, and the Participant may then elect, in his or her sole discretion, which and how much of the Payments shall be eliminated or reduced (as long as after such election the aggregate present value of the Payments equals the Reduced Amount) and shall advise

(iv)Overpayments and Underpayments. As a result of uncertainty in the application of Code Section 280G at the time of an initial determination by the Auditors hereunder, it is possible that Payments will have been made by the Company that should not have been made (an “Overpayment”) or that additional Payments that will not have been made by the Company could have been made (an “Underpayment”), consistent in each case with the calculation of the Reduced Amount hereunder. In the event that the Auditors, based upon the assertion of a deficiency by the Internal Revenue Service against the Company or the Participant that the Auditors believe has a high probability of success, determine that an Overpayment has been made, such Overpayment shall be treated for all purposes as a loan to the Participant which he or she shall repay to the Company, together with interest at the applicable federal rate provided in Code Section 7872(f)(2); provided, however, that no amount shall be payable by the Participant to the Company if and to the extent that such payment would not reduce the amount subject to taxation under Code Section 4999. In the event that the Auditors determine that an Underpayment has occurred, such Underpayment shall promptly be paid or transferred by the Company to or for the benefit of the Participant, together with interest at the applicable federal rate provided in Code Section 7872(f)(2).

(v)Related Corporations. For purposes of this Section 16(d), the term “Company” shall include affiliated corporations to the extent determined by the Auditors in accordance with Code Section 280G(d)(5).

17.Miscellaneous.

(a)Other Terms and Conditions. The grant of any Award may also be subject to other provisions (whether or not applicable to the Award granted to any other Participant) as the Committee determines appropriate, including, without limitation, provisions for:

(i)one or more means to enable Participants to defer the delivery of Shares or recognition of taxable income relating to Awards or cash payments derived from the Awards on such terms and conditions as the Committee determines, including, by way of example, the form and manner of the deferral election, the treatment of dividends paid on the Shares during the deferral period or a means for providing a return to a Participant on amounts deferred, and the permitted distribution dates or events (provided that if Shares would have otherwise been issued under an Award but for the deferral described in this paragraph, then such Shares shall be treated as if they were issued for purposes of Sections 6(a));

(ii)the payment of the purchase price of Options by delivery of cash or other Shares or other securities of the Company (including by attestation) having a then Fair Market Value equal to the purchase price of such Shares, or by delivery (including by fax) to the Company or its designated agent of an executed irrevocable option exercise form together with irrevocable instructions to a broker dealer to sell or margin a sufficient portion of the Shares and deliver the sale or margin loan proceeds directly to the Company to pay for the exercise price;

(iii)conditioning the grant or benefit of an Award on the Participant’s agreement to comply with covenants not to compete, not to solicit employees and customers and not to disclose confidential information that may be effective during or after the Participant’s employment or service, and/or provisions requiring the Participant

(iv)the automatic grant of a new Option (the “replenishment Option”) to a Participant who pays the exercise price of an existing Option in Shares; provided that the replenishment Option shall cover only that number of Shares that is used to pay the exercise price and shall expire at the same time as the original Option to which it relates;

(v)restrictions on resale or other disposition of Shares, including imposition of a retention period; and

(vi)compliance with federal or state securities laws and stock exchange requirements.

(b)Employment or Service. The issuance of an Award shall not confer upon a Participant any right with respect to continued employment or service with the Company or any Affiliate, or the right to continue as a Director. Unless determined otherwise by the Committee, for purposes of the Plan and all Awards, the following rules shall apply:

(i)a Participant who transfers employment between the Corporation and any Affiliate of the Company, or between the Company’s Affiliates, will not be considered to have terminated employment;

(ii)a Participant who ceases to be a Non-Employee Director because he or she becomes an employee of the Company or an Affiliate shall not be considered to have ceased service as a Director with respect to any Award until such Participant’s termination of employment with the Company and its Affiliates;

(iii)a Participant who ceases to be employed by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company and immediately thereafter becomes a Non-Employee Director, a non-employee director of any Affiliate, or a consultant to the Company or any Affiliate shall not be considered to have terminated employment until such Participant’s service as a director of, or consultant to, the Company and its Affiliates has ceased; and

(iv)a Participant employed by an Affiliate of the Company will be considered to have terminated employment when such entity ceases to be an Affiliate of the Company.

(c)No Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares or other securities may be issued or delivered pursuant to this Plan, and the Committee may determine whether cash, other securities or other property will be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional Shares or other securities, or whether such fractional Shares or other securities or any rights to fractional Shares or other securities will be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated.

(d)Unfunded Plan. This Plan is unfunded and does not create, and should not be construed to create, a trust or separate fund with respect to this Plan’s benefits. This Plan does not establish any fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant or other person. To the extent any person holds any rights by virtue of an Award granted under this Plan, such rights are no greater than the rights of the Company’s general unsecured creditors.

(e)Requirements of Law and Securities Exchange. The granting of Awards and the issuance of Shares in connection with an Award are subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan or any Award Agreement, the Company has no liability to deliver any Shares under this Plan or make any payment unless such delivery or payment would comply with all applicable laws and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange

(f)Governing Law. This Plan, and all agreements under this Plan, will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to any conflict of law principles. The parties agree that the exclusive venue for any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement, shall be a court sitting in the County of Los Angeles, or the Federal District Court for the Central District of California sitting in the County of Los Angeles, in the State of California, and further agree that any such action may be heard only in a “bench” trial, and any party to such action or proceeding shall agree to waive its right to assert a jury trial.

(g)Limitations on Actions. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement, must be brought within one year (365 days) after the day the complaining party first knew or should have known of the events giving rise to the complaint.

(h)Construction. Whenever any words are used herein in the masculine, they shall be construed as though they were used in the feminine in all cases where they would so apply; and wherever any words are used in the singular or plural, they shall be construed as though they were used in the plural or singular, as the case may be, in all cases where they would so apply. Titles of sections are for general information only, and this Plan is not to be construed with reference to such titles.

(i)Severability. If any provision of this Plan or any Award Agreement or any Award (i) is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any person or Award, or (ii) would disqualify this Plan, any Award Agreement or any Award under any law the Committee deems applicable, then such provision should be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of this Plan, Award Agreement or Award, then such provision should be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or Award, and the remainder of this Plan, such Award Agreement and such Award will remain in full force and effect.
